Taris is the Mother of death and pain, as well as ice and cold. This is dark magic, child. But no High Priestess can leave this knowledge unlearned. ’ Marna closed her eyes, and for a moment Calwyn saw the bones of her skull just beneath her skin. ’ ‘Lady Mother, I can’t – I can’t learn these chantments,’ stammered Calwyn. ‘I understand, child. I felt the same, when my turn came. But without the dark, there can be no light. And dark defeats dark. ’ Marna looked directly at her, and said clearly, ‘I let the sorcerer live.

She believes that some must be sacrificed, for the sake of us all. ’ cried Calwyn. ’ Lia gave Calwyn a swift, burning look. ‘Marna is not our High Priestess any more. ’ Calwyn whispered. She groped behind her for the bench, to hold up her shaky legs; she felt sick and hollow. Suddenly she knew that Marna was the real reason she had come back to Antaris: not the sisters, or the bees, or the orchard, or the singing in the great hall. Somewhere inside her, a last candle-flame of hope snuffed out. ‘Oh, Cal,’ murmured Mica.

The very last thing she needed now was to be detained by Ursca. But the infirmarian had seized her arm. ‘Come. ’ When it was necessary, Ursca could move as briskly as anyone, and she propelled Calwyn and Mica across the courtyard, through a narrow doorway into a dark corridor.
